Rotosound Monel Flatwound Top Tape Jazz Guitar Strings

Nickel on steel electrics in a wide range of gauges for 6, 7, 8 and 12 string sets to suit all playing styles and the needs of todays musician!

An iconic British legend

By helping music icons like Jimi Hendrix, John Entwistle and Geddy Lee to create their amazing sounds, Rotosound strings have become synonymous with the British Tone. Renowned throughout the world, Rotosound is the home of legendary products such as Swing Bass 66 and Roto strings.

Why do so many artists choose Rotosound?

For over fifty years now their strings have changed the sound of rock and have been used on some of the most amazing albums recorded by some of the best artists in the business.

Founded in 1958 by James How as a small, UK based, family-owned and operated company, Rotosound core values are little changed today. Each string is physically and visually inspected at every stage of the manufacturing process to get maximum consistency, ensuring each one is unrivaled in tone, tuning stability and durability.

The highest quality materials

  • Custom wound to engineering perfection
  • Nickel on Stainless Steel
  • Longer European eye adds extra strength at the ball end
